Reply Bohemian Style September 24, 2011 Oh my how funny. The woman in red 3d from top was my neighbor and I once got a lecture when I told her she reminded me of Iris Apfel.theBohmerian.com Reply Ezabelle October 3, 2011 What style! I always think that children and the ‘older’ members in our society are the most naive and honest. They both don’t care to confirm, and consequently don’t give a damn on what others think about them or their style. It’s all self expression of beauty at it’s purist. You can see the joy in the faces of these ladies, They’re clearly loving life, And so they should!All of us in the middle could learn a lot from this, I guess.Love the post.
